Michael
Dolan McCarthy is a
novel.
“I
should have been the first one home.”
Instead,
Michael Dolan McCarthy, a boy named for a father he barely remembers and a
grandfather he’s never known, watches his little sister Missy enter
their apartment while he flirts with Shenia.
“Then
Shenia’s cell jingled its pretty little tune.”
It’s
a frightened Missy. She tells Michael their mother is “gone, like
Betsy.” Michael starts running.
Sheri McGuinn’s first published novel, Running Away,

Dolan McCarthy made it to the Quarter-Finals of the 2009 Amazon
